The Elephant hotel in Fortitude Valley Brisbane is holding an event which matches Young Henrys Ales with 5 whiskys from Glenfiddich matched to a 5 course degustation menu.

Matching beer and whisky is an art. Pairing this combination with a 5 course meal could be tricky. But this is the promise of the partnership between Elephant Kitchen, Award winning Sydney brewers Young Henrys and Glenfiddich at their evening ‘Hops, Barrel Grain’.

Recently held in Sydney – hosted by Dan Hampton of Young Henrys and the “Whisky Guru” James Buntin – it proved to be a stunning success with James and Dan having the crowd laughing from the start. Everyone was amazed by how well the whisky, beer and menu combined – truly one of the best events all the attendees had been to.

Bringing together the Glenfiddich Single Malt Whisky range with the hand crafted beers and ciders from Young Henrys brewery will provide a delicious flavour exploration for beer and whisky lovers alike.

Over five courses of food designed by Elephant Hotel head chef Dean Sammut, guests will be guided through the layers of flavours in each beer and whisky in an entertaining and informative manner. It’s a master class for those who aren’t afraid of big flavours, smooth whisky and hand crafted local beer.
